Key specifications

How to use

Install the module into a compatible QSFP28 port on a switch, router or media converter while the host device is powered according to the equipment manufacturer's hot-plug guidelines. Connect single-mode fiber patch cables to the transceiver’s optical interface, ensuring correct polarity and appropriate connector type on both ends. After physical installation, verify link status and configure the host device for 100G operation if necessary. Monitor signal and link diagnostics through the host device to confirm expected performance.

Recommendations

Ensure fiber connectors and transceiver optics are clean before connection and use single-mode fiber rated for long-reach transmission. Confirm compatibility with the host device's QSFP28 port and follow the network equipment vendor's guidance for module installation and firmware/driver requirements.
